"It is true we were molested by the elves..."

Are we supposed to tell you were the quote is from? If so, that's what Thorin said to the Master of Lake town when they first came into the dining hall and the elvish raftsman recognized them.

It was indeed "Hmmm, smells like elves."

Katt, that is the wrong wording. The quote is "It is true we were WAYLAID by the wood elves." The molested by the woodelves thing was a slip of the tounge comitted by the person playing Thorin in our play.

That was the POINT! It was a JOKE! Honestly! Some people can't take a joke!

Of course I know it was a joke. I just wanted to make sure that people didn't think we actually molested the dwarves. Anyway, this is quite off subject so someone ask a question.

Thank you Willow, I was just about to say something.

How many dwarves of the original expedition survived the
Battle of the 5 Armies, if you count Thorin as one of the casualties)?

Correct Willow, your turn.

Gandalf-No cutting in the trivia line , especially with a LotR question. But the answer is: Tom was able to control Old Man Willow becuase of the power over all things in his land that he has through his music.

How many times did the dwarves try to enter the feast of the wood elves?

No! No! Don't say the thread is ended . . . it's too good. Forgive my jumping in here without having answered a question (they were all answered), but here is one for all you other hard-core types: what was the bravest thing Bilbo did in "The Hobbit"?

Um, this is a guess, but was it continuing down Smaug's tunnel?

Correct!
Quote:
". . . A sound, too, began to throb in his ears, a sort of bubbling like the noise of a large pot galloping on the fire, mixed with a rumble as of a gigantic tom-cat purring. This grew to the unmistakable gurgling noise of some vast anmial snoring in its sleep down there in the red glow in front of him. It was at this point that Bilbo stopped. Going on from there was the bravest thing he ever did."
And some people call Tolkien's writing "flat."

Your turn, Khadrane (an interesting name, part of which must mean "hard-core" ) --

Yipee! I got it right! Let's see... who were the third and fourth dwarves to appear while Gandalf was telling Beorn their story?

And about my name, I made it up after I read The Hobbit and before I read LotR. I used to pretend I was a wizard. Kinda embarassing now... I never knew it meant anything.
